UNIQUE STUDENT IDENTIFIER (USI)

The USI is an initiative by the Council of Australian Governments (COAG) to provide students with the ability to obtain a complete record of their Vocational Education and Training (VET) enrolments and achievements from a single source. The USI will:

Seamlessly link information about a student’s VET achievements, regardless of where they studied

Enable students to easily access secure digital transcripts of their achievements

Give students access to, and more control over, their educational information

From the 1st January 2015, if you enrol into a VET course you will be asked to provide your USI. If you do not have a USI you must apply for one prior to enrolment.
